I'll miss you my Bud

September 13th, 2006 - Buddy was set free of the pain of his old crippled body to cross over to a better place.
I had the privilege of knowing Buddy and looking after him for the last 1 1/2 years of his life. I also had the privilege of holding him close to me while he left this world.
Buddy had a love of life just loved being around people. He would get so excited going out for a car ride and stopping for a TimBit that it made you laugh. Little things made him soooo happy.
Unfortunately, Buddy's poor old legs got to be too messed up and nothing could be done. Bud was on some super strong painkillers and would cry even with that.
On Sept. 12th we had a day out and Buddy was his usual happy crazy self - the adrenaline getting him thru. He had a wonderful day out but the next day he crashed again.
I held Buddy close to me while the vet quickly and quietly put him to sleep. Buddy left us with dignity and acceptance with all my love and tears.

"Run Buddy...as fast as you can and feel the wind blow on your face like you wanted to so bad when you were here. I'll always love you Bud and will never forget the crazy old guy that blew into my life for a little sliver of time"
